Technology in Government: Where IT and the Mission Meet

Digital transformation continues to power government and the adoption of emerging technologies to deliver the mission. Agencies are using chatbots and artificial intelligence for more citizen-centric services. Digital natives in the workforce develop apps for Americans whose primary device is a cell phone.
